In a recent incident at the Karnataka State Legislative Council, there have been reports of BJP MLC CT Ravi using derogatory language towards Minister Laxmi Hebbalkar. The Karnataka State Women's Commission has taken notice of this and is urging the council's chairperson, Basavaraj Horatti, to conduct a high-level inquiry into the matter.
Nagalakshmi Chowdhary, the chairperson of the Commission, wrote a letter to Horatti expressing their concern over the incident. She stated that Ravi's actions were a clear insult to women and their dignity, and requested a thorough investigation into the matter. As a former Minister and a responsible figure, Ravi should have shown respect towards women, but instead, he used vulgar and unconstitutional language towards a woman minister in such a respected space.
Chowdhary emphasized that Ravi's words were not only an insult to the women of the country but also to their emotions and dignity. She urged Horatti to take this matter seriously and conduct a high-level investigation into the incident. Ravi was arrested on December 19, during the concluding day of the Winter Session of the Karnataka Legislature. However, the Karnataka High Court ordered his release, stating that his arrest was illegal as proper procedures were not followed.
It is important to address such incidents and take necessary actions to ensure that women are treated with respect and dignity. The Commission hopes that the Legislative Council will take swift and appropriate action in this matter.
